Hi people, I'm looking for people from the Houston area in Texas. I'm particularly interested in getting into touch with people who attend (or know about) the Lakewood Church in Houston. If you feel that you fit into the description (or you just wanna chat), please answer this thread or send me a PM.


Blessings,
Disippelen :)

What is it you want dis?

Lakewood church... think I've heard of it. Is that Joel Ostean or however you spell it.

Don't attend church there anyhow.

I'll just chat if you wish. Or answer questions and ask them.

Been a houstonian for six months now. Don't think we're going anywhere unless the Lord moves us.

It's been an interesting experience and I'm getting used to it here.

Don't like the freeways and am not to fond of the drivers either.

Where is the vineyard?

I pray the Lord will move us once He's done teaching us what He wants us to learn and doing whatever He wants us to do.

I prefer rural areas. City living takes some getting used to0.
The one I go to is in the Heights, 11th and Studemont. But there are a few around the area.

I'm from the Houston area (just north of Houston actually) but I've never been to Lakewood church. I prefer a smaller congregation since I grew up in a small town where everyone knew everyone. I have known friends who attend or attended the church in the past... some had very positive experiences, some not so much.

I went to Lakewood to see Joyce Myer last November. It's located inside what used to be the Summit. It's a very impressive place, the auditorium is massive. I live in North Houston near the Woodlands, so Lakewood is way too far for me. I'm not really into the fancy, big production Church services, but if it brings people closer to God I have no problem with it.

I should probably start a new thread, but....

We are looking into moving to the Houston area from New England. Any one have any impressions of Spring Branch? I've been told their school system is good for kids with autism (my youngest has autism so we need special services for him).

I'm jealous of you guys ;)

Me and my wife would really like to move to Texas, preferably Houston next summer. It would be a dream come true.

My wife can get a sponsored working VISA (she is a teacher) so I think I can "tag a long" on that one but I'm deeply worried about not getting a job once we are there...

Do you guys know any good sites where you can search for jobs? (I have a master's degree in economics). Any advice would be really appreciated.

God bless!
